Ads

I don’t care that I purchased this 13 years ago. I shouldn’t be seeing ads.

The biggest “what if”

This game is a staple of my childhood, I used to play this game with my friends in the school bus but super sorry to see we never got any updates.

Good Game

I like this game but the problem is that the background glitches a lot and joystick controls smoothly

Bad

Why does the character do so much damage

Definitely a good fighting game.

Puncho Fighto is not only a good fighting game, the devs seem really nice! They thank you after you buy the “No Ads” in-app purchase which is pretty nice considering the majority of mobile games just don’t say anything. Overall: 20/10
